My knockout first night
By admin | August 10, 2010
Having recently purchased a new bar in my home town, I have been looking for novel ways to keep the punters interested. I am trying to attract the younger crowd in town, and to do that I figured that I would need lots of fun things to do in the pub.
There’s plenty of space in the bar, so I got rid of some of the tables the old owners had, and immediately installed a Pool table. I don’t really think a bar is a bar without a pool table. After that was put in I got a new duke box with lots of new music, because the one that was in situ was full of seventies classics! The place was given a lick of paint, and I even got a couple of old retro pinball machines, for their look more than anything.
Before the grand opening, I wanted to get something else to decorate the bar, and also to perhaps bring in a little more cash. I was having a look around online for inspiration when I came across a punching machine! It sounds a bit crazy, but this was a bit like something you would find in an old fair ground. It’s a machine which measures the strength of your punches, and I thought it might get a bit of competition going amongst the guys in the bar.
I wasn’t wrong! On our first night our takings were boosted by about £100 from the punching machine alone! I never would have thought it but this really gave the bar something different for my punters!
